It has, to say the least not been Jesse Lingards autumn.
In the Premier League it has been to 13 matches without goal or assist, while it has been a single goal in the Europa League for the offensive player.
This has meant that Lingard was not selected for the English national team at the latest, and in the Manchester United Ole Gunnar Solskjær felt compelled to benches englishman.
“I played not well, and he (Ole Gunnar Solskjær) was all over me all the time. He expected more of me. So I felt that it was best to tell it all and explain why my head was not the right place,” says Jesse Lingard in an interview with The Daily Mail.
the Explanation for the poor performance on the pitch, according to Lingard himself, among other things, the outside of the track, where he has been forced to bear a responsibility, he has not been previously accustomed to.
Manchester United-the player’s mother Kirsty has been ill for a longer period of time, why Lingard has been the need to take care of his 14-year-old brother and 11-year-old little sister, and especially his younger brother Jasper has had difficulty addressing the mother’s illness.
“My mother has been struggling with some things for several years, but have never really gotten any help. The she gets now. It has been hard to do my work proper, when I could see my nearest have it hard.”
“I have felt that I have had to carry a lot of stuff on my shoulders, and all of you have said: ‘here you go Jesse, it here you must just cope’,” says Jesse Lingard.
After the conversation with Ole Gunnar Solskjær is Lingard come closer to the starting line-up again, and he started out among the other inside in the victories against Tottenham and Manchester City.
Now the goal for Lingard to return to the English national team, so he can come up with for the european championships in 2020.
If it is to succeed, it requires more performance of the caliber, that in the 17/18 season made him an important player for Manchester United.
Jesse Lingard, Manchester United will try to continue their good streak of results, when the Sunday home meetings with Everton.
